Default Jalopnik Nice Price or No Dice has 430!

The jalopnik car enthusiast website has an 03 430SC as today's feature in the Nice Price or No Dice article.
Go vote for it!!
And fight off all of Clarkson's 'worst car of all time' mojo!

At $16,950, Is This 03 Lexus SC 430 The Granddaddy Of All Deals? (jalopnik.com)

Go SC!!!

Not surprising that most of the comments call it Fugly.

That's how the comments go on Jalopnik. Show them a station wagon and they'll all drool over it.

Especially if it's brown, for some reason.

There are some clever comments in general.

saw the article as well, and reading through the comments, most of them don't like the SC430.
I guess young kids vs US (old men?) LOL.

Our 08 is my 50 model year later 58 corvette i once owned as a very young guy. It just reeks quality and reliability. More important than macho looks if you are a quality car guy. Plus if you research the design you will find that the design greatly helps the cabin airflow with the top down. Patented i read somewhere? The early vette C1 model needed the body shell wind flow design that the sc 430 has. At the expense of its looks. It’s somewhat of an acquired taste. The obvious quality got me to spring for a similar ls460. Another winner. Made in Japan at lexus shows to be extreme quality. Sellers need to explain this fact to the next buyer. Plus with the cabriolet wind screen and the quarter window control from the luxlink you can light a cigarette in front of the drivers face at 80 mph with the top down and all side windows up

Hate the site. I could not read pass the first paragraph when the browser redirected to other advertising pages and other gabages.

Excuse my vulgarity but I wouldn't urinate on any one of Hawker's websites if they were on fire.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
